Abstract
An automatic performance device stores automatic performance data corresponding to a plurality of parts in music in a storage device. A first portion of the performance data corresponding to at least one of the plurality of parts in music is read out from the storage device in response to a trigger. A second portion of the performance data corresponding to other parts than the at least one of the plurality of parts in music is read out from the storage device. A point of the storage device from which the first portion of the performance data corresponding to the at least one of the plurality of parts in music is to be read out is shifted when no trigger has been generated.
